Portrait 365 : 174 – 183

June 29, 2014

Been a mega week here for me so we’re a little late on this, but I figure you guys are pretty understanding about life and shit getting in the way of good intentions…….

Alessandro

“My life has been easy and I’m happy. Now I’m travelling for 5 weeks as I just finished university in Italy. When I get home I will get a job as an optometrist.”He was wearing great specs when I spotted him but he whipped them off when I shot him.

How did they keep such a straight face???

Katie

“I moved to Lismore from Brisbane to go to uni and that first year was really hard. I was so broke that I often had to choose between food and a bus ticket. Now I work for Microsoft so it’s all good.”

Pauline

“I love kids but I never had children. I knew my husband couldn’t have children when we married. He was a wonderful artist, my husband. His name was Frederick Nolte and he was just about to paint John Howard for the Archibald when he got sick.”A chance meeting in the supermarket with a lady who just wanted to chat to my kids gave me a real gift.

Santhy & Waes

“Do you spell Santhy with an X?”“Yeah, you can.”“But how do you spell it?”“With an S.”“Let’s spell it like that then.”

Chantel

“I’m really proud of my talent to understand kids and their ability to make anyone happy. I am about to do my HSC but then I want to get into teaching.”

Doctor Doll

We took Ratty who has sore eyes to the Doll Hospital but sadly we were turned away because our medical insurance wouldn’t have covered the treatment required…. such as hand sewn eyes that we would have required surgery paid for by the hour.
Mummy will be fixing Ratty’s eyes herself.

DJ Lance Rock

“Dancing and listening to music is AWESOME”

Anika

My little winter owl.

Chris

“Moving here from the States was something big that I’m proud of. I moved here for my girlfriend. It’s hard being away from my family though. They’re back in California.”

Atong

“I set my own expectations for how I live my life and I’m living by them.”I love Atong. Amen sister.
